The article explains how to move from “Level 1″ gratitude, i.e being grateful and looking on the bright side, to “Level 2″ gratitude, essentially being grateful for the experience of life - a completely different experience. By practicing Level 2 gratitude it is possible to be grateful of everything, both the highs and lows, and enjoy it all. Any attempt to summarize would only be diluted; it really is one of those things worth reading, chewing, and digesting. [...] […] Since putting to practice Steve Pavlina’s interesting and insightful article on gratitude I can say it was definitely worth the read.

Or I should say, according to some people, it is – but they’re interested in a completely different effect of gratitude than I am. If that’s the type of gratitude that you’re interested in – gratitude as a sort of universal ATM – well, more power to you, but you’re better off looking here. I am interested in current findings from the field of psychology and studies that show how having gratitude can create a significant, replicable improvement in people’s lives.

Be grateful. Count each blessing that comes in your door and let them know how much you appreciate their presence. Try not to just be thankful you have students. Be grateful for their health and their willingness and their lives. Be grateful for your own health and abilities and the opportunity to interact with these people in a positive way. If you aren’t sure of the difference, you might check out what Steve Pavlina has to say about gratitude. Once you’ve stated the thought, “I am grateful for each of my students and their health and their fitness,” then treat them like you are grateful. Show them extra courtesy, provide as much personalized attention as you can, and go the extra mile to give them added incentive to always be in your class. It starts by acknowledging your gratitude, then sharing it with everyone. [...] […] 1. Be grateful.

I see it working in my life everyday. I started to do my research on the attitude of gratitude and found an article called Gratitude by none other than Steve Pavlina, who is on his way to becoming one of my favorite personal-development teachers, what can I say the guy is just good, and thorough. If you are in anyway interested in the role of gratitude in personal development and life you should read that article. But I digress, I believe that an attitude of gratitude will help boost positive change in your life and help in many other areas of your everyday life. So far I have seen its benefits in the following areas of my life: Stress Management Peace of mind – which has nothing to stress, at least for me. Self-control Better sleep Reduction in bad habits Creation of new health habits Better visualization Meditation Focus Going to the gym – I am so grateful for my membership that I do the one thing I thought was never going to be possible: pay for gym membership and actually go to the gym.

I’ve been doing this for two days, and already my mind is much more disciplined than it was before. I’m aware of little things that would have nagged me before, and now I drop them without a second thought. I’ve started developing a real sense of gratitude for life. Learning to control my mind in this way has opened the doors for potential. If I can make this big of a change in my thought patterns in two days, imagine what I can do when I really examine the processes of my mind. [...] […] The benefits are amazing.
